About Me

Here's an early build of a HTML5 canvas game I'm working on (using only the library Pixi.js). You can see some collision detection and camera panning if you use the arrow keys move around to different areas. This demo is quite simple for now, but I have a footage of an earlier, more advanced game I was working on in the extras below.

Extras

Here is some footage from an early version of a 2D platformer game I'm working on in my free time (using HTML5 canvas and Pixi.js). In this clip, you can also see some animations I made using Adobe Animate, such as the slime bouncing/exploding and the hair blowing in the wind. This is done in a process called frame-by-frame animation, which I have practiced for many years.

Here is a fan-made documentary about the history of the speedrunning community of my game The World's Hardest Game. There's a small biography of me at start of the video (from 0:12 - 1:00), and at the end of the video (from 50:47 - 53:50). As of writing this, the video has almost 2 million views. There are many other popular videos related to the game, such as when the popular Youtuber Markiplier played it.
